Let’s Sprout x Dalhousie Capstone

In partnership with Dalhousie’s Dr. Ingrid Waldron, Director of ENRICH (The Environmental Noxiousness, Racial Inequities & Community Health Project), Let’s Sprout wishes to design a curriculum to increase awareness of environmental racism among Nova Scotian youth. The Capstone project will involve outreach to Nova Scotia youth in order to research current level of understanding of environmental racism, identify critical knowledge gaps, and develop and test prototype activities and information on environmental racism for a youth audience. Students will be working with Rising Up participants throughout this project.
